COMMENTS ON THE SITUATION.


Dun & Co. on Bond Buying Condi
ton of Trade.
New York, Aug 6.-Referring to the
recent offer of the treasury 10 buy bonds and
prepay interest, Dun & Co.'S weekly review
says: Secretary Fairchild offers to prepay
interest with rebate, and 10 buy bonds if
offered low enough; but the men who have
bonds are not the men who need money in a
pinch Only 81, 500,G0O interest payable to
banks on bonds held is certain to be drawn,
unless the rebate is hereafter abandoned, and
whether banks Or permanent investors will
sell bonds at acceptable terms is uncertain.
The order in short. affects nonientary conf
dence more than the actual supply OF money
The expectation that less will lie wanted west
and south because the banks there hold 81,
000, 600 more than year ago. aud s2O, 1000,
00J more than two years ago, is met by the
fact that loans of the same hanks in the west.
ern and southern states have increased SSS,-
900, 900 since last year, and Sl42, 0uU, 00O III
two years, showing great increase in deln,nds
for money in new enterprises
The reports from interior points are almost
uniformly favorable, but money is already
reported tight Arkansas City Atlanta, and
some other points, Tue demand appears
greater than the supply at Cleveland and
Omaha, and collections are less satisfactory
at several centers. Crops are less favorably
reported in Michigan and Georgia, and har-
vestiDg in the northwest shows disappointing
results according to St Paul advices, but else
where accounts are excellent The season is
one of comparative inactivity in trade but OF
preparation for the future, and the confidence
telt recently, is i'll some quarters less strongly
manifested At the east heavy shipments ot
money to the west and large engagements for
the future attract attention Boston has put
81 WO,u00 into new undertakings, and
pledged $50 n01 900 more A similar, though
smaller, drain Is felt at Philadelphia and Bal
tmore. The treasury has taken from the
market during the week 81 4OO, 900 gold, with
substantially uo change in silver ahd legal
tenders
In brief, great speculations have unpleas-
antly blocked the wheels of trade in many
branches, aud absorbed or locked up vast
sums of money, which Will be wanted during
the fall But for their pernicious influence
the outlook would be far more encouraging
